So I've been playing this guitar exclusively for the past month...and still love it! So it's official...it's a keeper. I've been working on Whole Lotta Love, so it's pretty inspiring to get Jimmy Page's tones out of this guitar :-).

I recently had a little "scare" because I had a nasty buzz develop on the high E string. The high E string was buzzing on the first fret. After visions of having to have the nut reworked or a new one put on, it turned out to be something a small tweak on my truss rod took care of immediately. It was quite handy that Gibson includes the truss rod wrench with this guitar. So I'm now comfortable with all of the setup adjustments on this guitar...certainly not a bad thing.

Now that I'm fully committed to the guitar, I oiled the fretboard. It feels smoother and I like the darker look.
